Wednesday May 20, 2026 9:15am - 9:45am CDT
One of the most important things you do as a distributor is set pricing. But with thousands of customers, thousands of products, ever-changing tariffs, and rising prices, companies often delay price updates and see their margins erode.

Aside from having useful features for importing and exporting pricing and mass adjustments, the program sports a price simulator that lets you perform what-if analysis on your new pricing. IT also uses the latest AI technology to analyze your pricing and find anomalies and opportunities to improve results.

This demo session will walk you through this new product that will put money back in your pocket.
